I haven't really used perplexity, I'll check it out though.

So of all the AI platforms out there, I've used many, and I absolutely love Anthropic's Claude 3.7.

"Ukrainian" Whats in a name? The story of the term "Ukrainian" is deeply intertwined with the development of Ukrainian national identity.

I certainly hope that Bluesky becomes a space where people can come for educated discord. We have enough hatred on X, we don't need it here from either side.

Kruse noted that despite Bluesky's reputation as a "safe space" from X, he received more personal attacks there than on X.

Kruse's post included a quote from an anonymous Democratic communications staffer criticizing the idea of leaving X due to dislike for Musk.

The post led to thousands of angry and profane responses from Bluesky users, including graphic insults.

For those who don't know what I'm talking about:

A Politico reporter, Michael Kruse, had his Bluesky account briefly suspended after sharing a post about Elon Musk and the social media platform X (formerly Twitter).

In my 15 years on Twitter I witnessed a rabid onslaught of hate from both members of the Right and members of the Left. Is the same going to happen on @bsky.app? This whole deal with rabid leftists attacking Politico writer Michael Kruse doesn't give me good vibes.

Yesterday was the first day of winter here in Ukraine and the power company has already told us that blackouts will continue throughout the winter. They may get shorter, however they could also get longer with more attacks or worsening weather.

Are all Russians bad? No, it only depends. My 2 month old son's godmother was born and raised here in Lviv. Her parents are Russian and she was raised here and by her Russian grandmother .

She's married to a Ukrainian soldier who was wounded.

No, it's not sis at all. Because of who I am and what I do, I deleted my past tweets and am preparing to deactivate my X account because Elon plans to weaponize X against federal employees.

I love when Musk's toxic trash comes here, gets banned and then goes back to Musk's platform of hate to cry about no free speech on Bluesky.

Bluesky is free speech without hate.

Yesterday was Oleksii's big day. It was his baptism in a Ukrainian Orthodox Church here in Lviv.

In the US this is usually a short event, especially in protestant churches. This baptism ceremony took 48 minutes and 37 seconds and I took no part in it, his godparents did.

My ex-girlfriend was the Vice-President of Eventing for the Virginia Equestrian League, not sure what they called it but it was something like that.

In fact speaking of the farm house I rented, here it is. It was built in 1815 in Culpeper County, Virginia. It sat on 154 acres of land and had 19 Norwegian fjords and a quarter horse there.

It was a sweet deal, $1250 per month knocked down to $850 / month if I fed the horses twice per day.

In a past life I was heavily involved with horses. This is one of the 19 Norwegian Fjords that resided on the farm where I rented the farmhouse.
